Velit Bay Plantation & 15° South

Espiritu Santo


The winding 2km drive down the rocky road to spectacular Velit Bay is a visual sensation, while the small open-sided 15° South does much to tempt the taste buds. Chill on the private beach, where there are deck chairs and a bunch of activities -– kayaking, kitesurfing, snorkelling and beach volleyball – or indulge in fresh seafood or pasta.
